Maybe he mistook the squirrel for somebody’s pet dog.
To: GeronL
Wonder if he’ll file for disability...
To: nickcarraway
Since no charges were filed, free to apply at other agencies.

Yes, he was so traumatized by the squirrel that he needs disability for his psychiatric care

But maybe he didn’t fill it out because he knew he’d be fired for that.

Why didn’t he try nuts? Squirrels are nuts for nuts! Crazy I tell you! LOL! Seriously, when I use to live in New York city they would climb up my fire escape and come right into my apartment for peanuts then leave.

LOL! “Whoa whoa! Wait a minute, this is a multi-billion dollar installation, you just can’t nuke it because it has a few bugs!” “Well tell them they can bill me!”

Could be Nick, but shooting at a squirrel seems pretty mild compared to killing unarmed kids.Maybe they fired him for missing the squirrel.

"..Or a .22 with a a scope.."Really?!? Inna store? .22's are tough on metal roofs and readily bounce off steel structure.
How about a nice .22 or .177 pellet rifle? Scope optional. Sheesh.. d;^)
To: Doogle
Not a giant squirrel. That’s Tiny Elvis!

And oh yeah, fire the idiot cop. Who does that kindof crap? d:^)
To: CopperTop
22LR only meant to point out that a cop handgun is way too large and inaccurate.
I'd never use a 22 indoors. Perhaps my 50 yr old Daisy BB pump-action.
the suggestion of a dog or two is good too.

Was this the same squirrel that was loosed in church one Sunday and went up a lady’s dress?

Your post is spot on. For the last ten, or more, years, American cops have been morphing into jackbooted thugs, armed and outfitted as if they were on the front lines in war.
I do not know what started it, other then the present movies
that I see on TV. They are no longer the good old boys on the beat.

Yea, dogs don't tear stuff up.
My 80lb Boxer knocks stuff over when he just walks around.
